Plain brown box, holds 15 rounds.
Head stamp simply says 7.62mm.

The primer sealant and headstamp lettering look very much like the 80's production of Yugoslavian ammo imported into the US under the HANSON brand. The brass-cased 8mm Mauser Yugoslavia produced had the same look and came in nearly identical 15 round cardboard boxes with labels glued or stapled on.

The general consensus is that it is Yugo made ammunition for the Yugoslav wars of the 90s. Non reloadable and most likely corrosive.

Thanks guys, certainly looking very Yugo. Appreciate it.

I guess I'll post it for cheap and see if anyone can use it. I've got 10 boxes (150 rounds) of it.
